Carpets & Rugs to 2015
 
 US demand to rise 7.9% annually through 2015
 US demand for carpet and rug products is projected to increase 7.9 percent annually from a weak 2010 base to 16.5 billion square feet in 2015. The primary driver of growth will be the expected recovery of the US economy, which will spark renewed demand for carpets and rugs across all market segments. http://www.bharatbook.com/market-research-reports/apparel-clothing-market-research-report/carpets-rugs-to-2015.html
 
 Specifically, a rebound in the battered new residential construction sector will lead to a surge in demand for tufted carpet and area rugs. Prospects will improve in both the residential and nonresidential replacement markets as well, reflecting improvements in consumer confidence and discretionary spending and a more robust housing market on the residential side; and lower vacancy rates and an expansion in new office and commercial space on the nonresidential side.
 
 Carpet tile to gain market share, expand applications
 Demand for carpet tile, while still accounting for a relatively small portion of overall carpet and rug demand, is expected to increase its presence in nonresidential markets. This product, long viewed as inferior in quality, has improved dramatically in recent years. Enhanced durability and improved appearance, along with a much broader selection of styles, patterns and colors, have vaulted modular carpet products into the mainstream. Demand is also expanding out of the traditional office and commercial sectors to institutional and government markets, and even residential markets.
 
 Polyester to become second leading carpet/rug face fiber
 Nylon will continue to be the primary fiber used in carpet and rug products for the foreseeable future, but improved fiber quality and high petroleum prices have propelled polyester fibers into the runnerup position, ahead of polypropylene fibers. With much of the polyester fiber used in carpets and rugs coming from recycled beverage bottles, these fibers have a significant economic advantage compared to nylon and polypropylene, both of which are derived from petroleum. Improvements to the feel and durability of polyester fibers, coupled with their inherent colorfastness and stain resistance, have made these fibers much more competitive in an environment where customers are seeking lower cost alternatives without having to sacrifice quality.
